An American nurse who performed CPR on a Palestinian activist, Awdah Hathaleen, shot and killed by an Israeli settler, was detained and deported by Israeli authorities. The nurse and other American witnesses reported that the settler walked freely after the shooting while Palestinians were arrested. The nurse believes their detention was due to witnessing the violence and providing aid. This incident highlights a pattern of denying Palestinians medical care after settler attacks, according to experts. Israeli authorities have not responded to requests for comment.
